World Patient Safety Day.

Patients, families, and providers around the world are affected by medical error. This annual event and its associated materials seek to raise awareness, motivate collaboration, and stimulate innovative work targeting a distinct patient safety theme. The 2025 theme is "Safe care for every newborn and every child" with the slogan “Patient safety from the start!” Explicit objectives of the event include increasing awareness worldwide of maternal and neonatal care challenges advocating for parental and caregiver engagement in safety, and  advocacy to advance research focused on pediatric and newborn care research.
